Lambda Research Corporation Delivers TracePro 5.0 Optomechanical Design Software

By DE Editors

Lambda Research Corporation has released TracePro 5.0 optomechanical design software. TracePro 5.0 provides a new interface for modeling optical sources. The user is now able to define and manage spectral data for each unique source and to combine different source types in a single ray trace. This yields time savings to any design process that involves multiple sources or source alternatives and fluorescence.

New analysis capabilities include flux versus optical path length (OPL) or time of flight (TOF). New simulation updates include reverse ray traces and luminance ray traces with blackbody and gray body sources. 

TracePro 5.0 also includes new add-in utilities that assist in creating and optimizing properties. Inputs can include data from physical measurements, manufacturers' data, and industry standards. 

Models are created by importing from a lens design or CAD program, or by directly creating the solid geometry in TracePro. Source rays propagate through the model with portions of the flux of each ray allocated for absorption, specular reflection and transmission, fluorescence, polarization and scattering.
